<br>
Let me congratulate you for being accepted to the GSOC program with MacPorts.<br>
<br>
Since your project is of vital importance for MacPorts, we will<br>
require pretty high coding standards, including good documentation and<br>
test cases, and strive towards early deployment, leaving sufficient<br>
room for feedback and improvements.<br>
<br>
Apart from regular email flow on the mailing list or IRC, I suggest to<br>
have weekly live chat with mentors for brainstorming, ease of planning<br>
& progress tracking, problem resolution, ...<br>
<br>
We have three weeks of community bonding period in front of us. Making<br>
good use of this time is equally important as coding itself, so we<br>
hope you'll use this time well. I have a pretty long email nearly<br>
ready with more instructions and suggestion about what I envisioned<br>
for those three weeks. You might get some greeting from other members<br>
of the team as well. You can expect help from me, Jackson and Umesh<br>
(I'm at UTC+2, the other two are in the same time zone as you are),<br>
but others should be able to help you as well (I don't always have all<br>
the answers), final deployment can be done by Clemens or Rainer who<br>
also have a lot more expertise in MacPorts internals than all the<br>
three of us combined :).<br>
<br>
We are looking forward to an awesome summer working together,<br>
Mojca<br>
